7 Care and maintenance
▪ Do not refreeze food once defrosted! Only after being prepared (through cooking or
frying) can food be refrozen.
▪ Blanch vegetables before freezing. Aubergines, sweet peppers, courgettes, mush-
rooms, asparagus and herbs do not have to be blanched.
▪ The following products are not suitable for freezing: radishes, lettuces, cucumbers,
raw unshelled eggs, boiled eggs, dairy products such as yogurt, cream cheese, curd
cheese and mayonnaise.
▪ Do not defrost frozen food at room temperature or on the heating. Food defrosts
slowly in the refrigerator compartment. As a quick alternative, defrost in a microwave
or steam cooker.
6.4 Notes on saving energy
▪ Leave the drawers, glass shelves and door trays as far as possible in the positions
that they were in upon delivery. These ensure ideal temperature distribution and effi-
ciency.
▪ Only open the appliance doors when necessary and keep them open for as short a
time as possible.
▪ Allow hot or warm food to cool down before putting it in the appliance.
▪ Store food that releases moisture in closed containers or covered in the refrigerator
compartment. Moisture can cause the rear wall of the refrigerator to ice up more
quickly and reduce its cooling capacity.
▪ For ideal air circulation: Do not store food and food items too close to each other.
